Activity 2: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 6 min

Lab Fever (Mid)

In this simulation game, you are a scientist investigating how liquids are heated. You will complete three mini-experiments during the game. After each expirement, there will be a short quiz to test you on what you have learned. Your investigation explores the rate of heating different volumes of the same liquid, the rate of heating the same volume of different liquids, and the effect of heating a liquid on molecular vibration.

Flow of thermal energy (Mid)

You are a young engineer in a lab, and it is your day to learn about thermal energy. Each level imparts a new task related to heat transfer. Most of the tasks require you to heat up different materials like bricks, aluminum or plastics and measure or watch the change in temperature of each. You will try out fifteen different experiments to understand thermal energy.
